Do you remember when we used to be best friends?
Do you remember when you used to call me "gah jay"?
Do you remember when we would play Black Beauty and how I'd always be the horse?
Do you remember when we used to be together 24/7?
Do you remember when I described what a "booby trap" was to you?
Do you remember when I thought it'd be funny to nickname you "feline"? (Confession: I don't think I knew what that word actually meant at the time.)
Do you remember when you used to always be SO excited to see me in the hallways of Drake Elementary School and I wouldn't allow you to say hi to me?
Do you remember how you used to do it anyway?
Do you remember when we used to be the two coolest members of the rollerblading club of CCCC?
Do you remember when we would watch "Night of the Living Dummy III" together multiple times even though I was kind of scared every time?
Do you remember when your voice was more high-pitched than mine?
Do you remember when we used to shop for gifts for mom and try to pay using only coins?
Do you remember hula-hoop races on our driveway?
Do you remember when I was bossy and you would obey me out of fear that I would call the cops on you?
Do you remember when we went fishing with butterfly nets in our swimming pool?
Do you remember "Jacob Field, Jacob Field, Jacob Field, JAM"?
Do you remember when we would play the Cabbage Patch Kids board game together for hours?
Do you remember foot wars in the back of the Eagle during 6-hour long car rides to Toronto?
Do you remember the mustard-ketchup game during 6-hour long car rides to Toronto?
Do you remember when we would sing the pokemon rap together?
Do you remember when we tried to build-- and crawl over-- a bridge between our two beds using a blanket?
Do you remember when I bought Cutie for you that one Christmas?
Do you remember Buttman?
I'm sad that we got old.
Sincerely,
an older sister who feels so so old
